Bring some fun to your long drive with pop culture-themed games, like Battle of the Bands, where one person picks a song category and two other players each play a song. The first player decides which one wins! There’s also the Singing Game, where you go around singing a song lyric each and the next player has to sing a line from a different song with related lyrics.

Games that Make You Think

Most road trip games are pretty mindless, but games that let you focus your attention on thinking hard will make time fly by. One example is the Name Game, where you name a celebrity and the next player has to name another celebrity whose name starts with the last letter of the last celebrity’s name. It doesn’t have to be a famous person—pick any category that interests you!

Word Games

Word Association and Alphabet Categories are two more games for a carful of wordsmiths. In Word Association, one person says a word and the next person says the first word that comes to mind and so on. In Alphabet Categories, you pick a category like food or instruments and name something from that category for each letter of the alphabet.

Are you ready for a road trip, but your car is not? Come see us at Quebedeaux Mitsubishi to find something better.

Bird Box, the wildly popular new Netflix film adaptation of the Josh Malerman novel by the same name, has earned a place in internet history by achieving the peak of pop culture prestige: it inspired a meme.

The film’s main characters live in a world filled with monsters the sight of which makes humans kill themselves, so they protect themselves by wearing blindfolds when they go out. Naturally, the film’s fans—and then the entire internet—challenged themselves to go about their day in blindfolds.

The Bird Box Challenge, like the cinnamon challenge and the Tide Pod challenge before it, is sweeping the nation—often at the expense of public safety. A 17-year-old girl in Layton, Utah, for instance, took on the challenge while driving, pulling her hat down over her eyes and inevitably crashing into another car.

It should go without saying that you should never drive without being able to see. Both the Bird Boxer and the driver she hit came out of the accident unscathed, but it could have been much more serious. Don’t do the Bird Box Challenge while Driving—in fact, if you’re going to blindfold yourself, stay home. The general public will be safer for it.

If someone else driving like an idiot hits your car, come see us at Quebedeaux Mitsubishi to see what we have to replace it.

Although many Americans face Valentine’s Day in the middle of dreary wintertime, if you live in Tucson you have no such problem. Instead, there are plenty of opportunities to turn up the romance and spend the day out and about with your loved one. Here are some Valentine’s Day date ideas in Tucson.

Plan a picnic: Pack up a romantic picnic with all your favorite snacks, including some luscious chocolate covered strawberries. A picnic dinner can easily turn into a romantic stargazing session under the night sky, allowing you to spend some quality time together away from pesky technology. For such an evening, consider venturing to Sabino Canyon, Mount Lemmon, or a favorite outdoor spot that you and your loved one share.

Spend the night in: If you want to avoid packed restaurants on Valentine’s Day, consider cooking a delicious dinner of your loved one’s favorite cuisine. Light some candles to make the dinner feel extra special, and take a nighttime stroll afterwards to enjoy the evening together.

Have a surprise up your sleeve: If you and your loved one have been talking about doing something in the Tucson area for months – like trying a new restaurant or checking out a cool music venue – Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to finally do so. Surprise your loved one with a thoughtful plan that shows you’ve been listening.

If you’re looking for a ride to truly impress your date, consider a new vehicle from Quebedeaux Mitsubishi.

For the new year, many of us have made resolutions to be neater and more organized. However, we often overlook our vehicles when we make such resolutions. Since we spend so much time in our cars commuting to work, running errands, and cruising around town, it’s a great idea to keep your car nice and tidy so being in it is an enjoyable experience. Here are a few easy tips to keep your car clean:

Keep baking cups in the cupholders: Let’s face it: your vehicle’s cupholders almost definitely have crumbs in them. An easy way to keep them clean is by placing baking cups in them, which will catch future debris and make for easy cleanup.

Keep a small duster in the glove compartment: You don’t usually think of your car getting dusty, but it definitely does. To easily pick up the dust, store a small duster in your glove compartment.

Put important car docs in a file folder: Glove compartments are usually a mess of pertinent driving papers. A simple way to tidy this up is to get a file folder to store everything neatly. With such a system, you can easily store any future service documents.

Get a seat cover for pets: If you often travel with your furry best friend, get a seat cover for pets, which will make it so pet hair doesn’t get stuck in the seats and passengers don’t get covered in it later.

It’s almost 2019, which means it’s time to start thinking about how we want to use this fresh start to commit ourselves to being more productive and responsible. Consider adding these New Year’s car care resolutions to your list for improved car performance.

Make a maintenance schedule—and stick to it

Routine maintenance is one of the most important parts of car ownership, but it’s also one of the most neglected. Check your manual to see what maintenance you need to get done and when, and start setting up appointments. You can even get help from your dealership or auto shop to come up with the schedule.

Keep it clean

It’s hard to find the time and energy to clean your car, especially in the winter, but it’s vital to the health of your car. Clean it out regularly, and also get regular car washes. During the winter, make sure you wash the undercarriage as well to get rid of any salt that could cause rust.

Do maintenance at home

We all say we’re going to check our fluids once a month, but how many of us actually do? Make 2019 the year you check your oil regularly, keep your washer fluid topped off, and notice when one of the fluids is draining quickly so you can fix leaks before they get dangerous and expensive.

As we get closer to Christmas, you are probably thinking about some gift ideas for your loved ones. If you have a car fan in your life, we have a perfect lineup of gifts for car lovers that are sure to please.

Inverted Umbrella

One of the downfalls to the traditional umbrella is how wet it makes everything after it’s folded up. This can be especially bad if you drive a car with a leather interior. Buy your car lover an innovative inverted umbrella. It has two layers and folds the wet layer into a dry layer.

Durable Floor Mats

Arizona has a lot of dirt and sand. A set of durable, all-weather floor mats can help prevent that sand from getting ground down into the carpeting. And, they are easy to clean—simply take them out and hose them down.

Car Vacuum

If you have ever tried to use your household vacuum on your car, you know how inconvenient that can be. A dedicated car vacuum, like this hand-held one comes with a variety of tools to get in all the hard to reach places.

Model Car

You might not be able to afford to buy them the car of their dreams, but you can get them a high-quality model replica.

If you’re thinking of something bigger for Christmas this year with four wheels, come see us at Quebedeaux Mitsubishi.

Transporting holiday food in your car isn’t the easiest task, and it can really add to the holiday stress. Fortunately, getting food from one place to another isn’t all that difficult thanks to a few household items. Check out these ways to get holiday foods to family without any incidents.

Casserole

Hot casserole dishes can be a pain to transport, but not if you have an extra laundry basket handy! A travel casserole dish carrier certainly goes a long way, but if don’t want to buy one, simply place the casserole pan into a laundry basket and secure it in the vehicle. The small area makes it difficult for the pan to flip.

Pie

It isn’t really a family holiday without a pie, is it? Fortunately, getting a pie to its destination isn’t all that difficult. All it takes is a little tinfoil and an extra pie pan.

Take the extra pie pan and flip it upside down to put a top on the pie. Seal the edges together with tinfoil. It might be a good idea to put the pie flat in the truck to prevent it from flipping or flying into the windshield or seat.

Leftovers

There’s usually a lot of food at holiday meals, so there are bound to be leftovers too. Packing those delicious leftovers away is as easy as storing everything in plastic containers. Put the containers into the laundry basket, and then head home on a full stomach!

If you want to make sure your casserole arrives at the holiday party in style, take a look at our new inventory at Quebedeaux Mitsubishi.
